WARS ON BANK ROBBERS
National Banker* Aaaociation
Pressing Active Steps to
Protect Members—
Losses Cut
Imprisonment or death of many des-
perate bank criminal* the past year has
brought ^o appi ui iable reduction In fit*
tacks on banks, James E. Baum, in
charge of the American Bankers Asso-
ciation Protective Department, has re-
ported to his organization.
In the six mouths ended February 2S,
1935, he says, hanks were targets for
169 daylight holdups and 40 night bur-
glaries. He added that although banks
that are not members number only
about half those enrolled in the asso-
ciation, they suffered a far greater rate
of attack, namely, 51 per cent of all the
bank robberies committed during the
period. i.
Losses Show Decrease
During the period under report, bank
burglars and bandits exacted tribute
amounting to $943,551 compared with
losses totaling $1,257,000 a year ago, he
said. This reduction In losses Is attrib-
uted to the time-locking restrictions
and other limitations in the.axposnrelilS
surplus cash Imposed/last year by
underwriters and sev^fal bank super-
visory authorities. s
The sharp reduction In the material
loss of money and securities resulting
from bank robbery this year was "over-
shadowed by the killing of 2 bank em
ployees, one bystander and 5 d^resting
officers,” and since last August hank
robbery also cost the lives of 15 crimi-
nals and caused physical injuries to 10
bank employees, 12 bystanders, 9 ar-
resting officers and 8 bandits, a total of
62 casualties.
Investigations by the association’s j
agents resulted In the arrest of 36
forgers, 42 bandits and one burglar, or
79 of the 141 bank criminals reported as
being apprehended dnrfng the period.

“Overwork” a Much
Abused Term, Says
State Health Ofifcer

eer. "It is employed as au excuse
to avoid unattractive social engage-
ments. tl Is u-x'il to Impress others,
is freqently mentioned as the reason
for one's business failures. And It
certainly Is most, unjustly blamed for
nany IkmIII.v ills.
"As a matter .of fact overwork is
not nearly the hobgoblin it Is painted
io be. Abstractly speaking, overwork
is a very decent term, behaves itself
on most occasions, and does little
I damage to the lives of most of us.
11 And more likely .than not, where la.-k
• of health is concerned, overwork has
had'little if anything .to do with the
situation. \
"Actually, work-of a normal amount
or even above average, is not prone
to do one any rest! damage. On the
other hand, certain practices asso-
ciated with the work or whit living
are likely to l>o real bffenders. Tliosf*
who. for example, are victims of im-
pure air. illogical diets, nuto-lntoxl-
catlon. worry, lack of exercise, nnd
in-yifficient sleep are Usually the first
to blame work for their sorry cm-
ditlon Anilni'i doubt, even an nv-
oraee amount of worV enu easily ter
into a'Sense of overwork wlieu one’s
capacity to do the Job -has been
weakened, by enervating habits.
"The Iiest bulwark against Hi ef-
fects form hard and sustained work
is the con-rctentlons Adoption of n
well-rounded and properly ha laced
health program And by this sug-
gH-^tlon is not meant a fanatical ad-
herence to a long set of fauey mice,
but only n reasonable sense of the
primary duty ewry otV o«ve* to
himself to get plenty of Tresh air and
wane exercise, to eliminate the ex-
cessive use of stimulants, to obtain an
average amount of sleep, to eat
moderately; in short, to treat one’s
body with the resgmet that it de-
mands."
